The dumps I posted yesterday are when I see the slow down, and I'm not near any other electronic devices. I'm going to have to keep a journal of the mouse flying off to the left problem and see if it correlates to things I'm next to. Note that it could be interference from internal devices as well. The driver simply reports the values from the hardware unmodified, so unless there's some problem with interpreting the data (which seems unlikely at this stage, but not impossible) the jump indicates a sudden change in the position being reported by the touchpad. If you can enable the packet dump and collect the dmesg data (*immediately* after you see the jump, switch to a VT and collect the data without touching the touchpad or trackstick) I'll take a look and see if I can identify what's happening. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to xserver-xorg-input-synaptics in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/550625 Title: Alps touchpad is recognized but synaptics clients and scrolling do not work To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/linux/+bug/550625/+subscriptions ___ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat Post to : ubuntu-x-swat@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp

I did make some adjustments to sensitivity early on based on feedback. I apologize if I overlooked any subsequent comments. It's not true that trackstick sensitivity can't be adjusted in the driver, but it is true that these devices appear to report very different values for the trackstick once the touchpad is put in absolute mode, which causes the observed jump in sensitivity. Just becuase the driver changes have been merged doesn't mean we can't continue to improve it. The difficulty with the sensitivity is that it's partly personal preference, and from the comments I've seen I suspect that it might also vary from machine to machine. On the machines I'm testing with the sensitivity seems fine, and further reduction of the sensitivity in the driver actually impairs the ability to make fine adjustments to the cursor position.

Hi Seth, I'd been considering switching to KDE anyway and after using it for the past few days am getting used to it. It's really nice having two-fingered scrolling. Here are the things I've noticed about the driver: * I occasionally get a stray palm press while typing, which switches the focus or moves my cursor. The problem isn't nearly as bad as it was before your driver. Previously, I used the patch from comments #307 and #154 to disable tap-to-click and retain my sanity. Eliminating all stray palm presses is my only real request about the driver. * Two-fingered tap to right-click works, but is very difficult to get right. I have to try several times to get a contextual menu to appear, but then other times I accidentally invoke it. For now, I've disabled this. I can never get it to detect a three-fingered tap. Neither of these are big deals for me. * I just now mastered tapping the corner to right click (for me it's set to bottom right corner). I have to tap and lift immediately. Still, a little tricky to get right (tap and lift seems to help with two fingered tap too). * When I hold my finger to the touchpad, the pointer quivers slightly. I believe you mentioned that this behavior would be improved in Oneric (I'm using Natty). * Horizontal scrolling with two fingers works. Single fingered scrolling on the bottom edge invokes vertical scrolling however (left = down, right = up). Strange, but not a big deal since two fingered horizontal scrolling works. * I thing Horizontal circular scrolling is working: if I start at any edge and move at an angle, I get vertical scrolling. * I can't seem to get Continue edge scrolling automatically to work (e.g. I have Continue edge scrolling, while the finger stays in an edge corner checked but that doesn't happen, but I'm not confident I'm doing it right). * Continue cursor motion when hitting the touchpad edge works just fine. Thanks so much for working on this. It was depressing to have this fancy touchpad and have to use it with such limited functionality.

Re: [Ubuntu-x-swat] [Bug 550625] Re: Alps touchpad is recognized but synaptics clients and scrolling do not work
David: Thanks for testing! Almost everything you've mentioned is a desktop issue more than a driver issue. The driver mostly just passes the raw data from the touchpad up to the desktop, and the desktop translates this data into motion or scrolling or tapping. Specifically, I think most of the things you mention are features of the Xorg synaptics module. So they aren't issues with the driver, and as such they're really topics for separate bug reports. I have addressed a couple of specific points in the comments below. * Two-fingered tap to right-click works, but is very difficult to get right. I have to try several times to get a contextual menu to appear, but then other times I accidentally invoke it. For now, I've disabled this. I can never get it to detect a three-fingered tap. Neither of these are big deals for me. As I understand it, becuase this has limited multitouch capabilities the Xorg synaptics module doesn't support three-finger taps. I've been told that it might be possible to special-case the driver to support it for specific touchpads, but I haven't investigated. * When I hold my finger to the touchpad, the pointer quivers slightly. I believe you mentioned that this behavior would be improved in Oneric (I'm using Natty). Yes, this just reflects that the data from the touchpad is jittery. The version of the synaptics module in oneiric adds some filtering that I've seen eliminates this with some touchpads, although I haven't verified this with ALPS speicifically. I'm not seeing such jitter with ALPS touchpads under oneiric. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to xserver-xorg-input-synaptics in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/550625 Title: Alps touchpad is recognized but synaptics clients and scrolling do not work To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/linux/+bug/550625/+subscriptions ___ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat Post to : ubuntu-x-swat@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
Re: [Ubuntu-x-swat] [Bug 550625] Re: Alps touchpad is recognized but synaptics clients and scrolling do not work
Speaking to the jitter, I haven't looked into it but a couple of possiblities come to mind. First, the new driver changes the way the data is reported, and perhaps the data is higher resolution and more sensitive. It was also using different code on the X server side of things, so something in there could have an effect as well. Also, one more question. Except for jitter, things work fine for me on E6410, except that tap settings are reset after resume. Is this something that driver is responsible for, or it's up for userland to reset those settings? What tap settings are you referring to? If they're properties of the Xorg Synaptics TouchPad device or something found in the mouse pereferences, those are userland and don't involve the driver at all. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to xserver-xorg-input-synaptics in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/550625 Title: Alps touchpad is recognized but synaptics clients and scrolling do not work To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/linux/+bug/550625/+subscriptions ___ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat Post to : ubuntu-x-swat@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp

I used two fingers and made an horizontal scroll for about one second. What I see in the logs indicates that when you were scrolling your fingers you get a couple of data points sometimes where the touchpad is telling the driver that there was only a single contact on the touchpad. So basically you end up with the following sequence for the number of contact points being reported: 1 - 2 - 1 - 2 - 1 - 2 - 0 I have a hard time understanding how any of that is getting interpreted as a two-finger tap, but that's all I see that could conceivably be causing the events. I've been trying to reproduce it on the hardware I have, but I can't. Well, I guess there is one other thing. If something in the packet is getting misinterpreted as a button then I guess the driver could literally be sending a button event. To check this, switch to a virtual terminal and identify your touchpad in lsinput, then run sudo input-events devnr | grep BTN_MIDDLE While this is running, do the motions on the touchpad that are giving you middle clicks.

Do the touchpads which share the same version have the same firmware or are even identical? Or do they just communicate with the rest of the system, including the software, in the same way? I can tell you -- you have v3 :) In the 0.4 software it will print out the protocol version right after it loads. The reason I know you have v3 though is that you're hitting the code paths for initializing the trackstick, which don't exist in the v4 protocol support. v3 and v4 are just what I'm calling them, based on the order in which I encountered them. It's entirely possible that v4 hardware predates v3. But they almost certainly have different firmware. The distinctions are that the data they emit is formatted differently and that they use different register layouts internally.

On my computer (Dell Inspiron N5110, opensuse 11.4 kernel 3.0.4, just touchpad, no trackstick) it's working well. Just 3 problems: 1. When leaving my finger over the touchpad without movement, the cursor moves erratically ±1 pixel (but stays in the same place), maybe it does have something to do with sensitivity to high. I'll try to get the max X and Y and send them to you. In my past experience this is fixed by some filtering added in newer versions of the Xorg synaptics module. It doesn't really seem appropriate to filter the hardware-reported values in the driver. 2. Sometimes when moving the cursor with one finger only on the touchpad, click events are fired, though I can't find a way to reproduce this. I've seen something like this with two-finger touch. If the problem is the same, it's caused by these occassional odd reports from the hardware that the pressure is zero, and the next release of the driver will have a fix in place. 3.

aa-hcl: Thanks for testing. I'm glad the driver is working for you. If choosing two-finger scrolling then the scrolling does not work at all. Yes, that's because of the missing multitouch support that I mentioned. I'm working on that now. I also compared the touchpad and stick performance under Win7 and ubuntu and now I do not see much difference. Good to know.

What's new in this release: * The driver will now work on machines without tracksticks (hopefully, I don't have hardware to test this on). * The driver now supports more hardware than previously. Specifically, it supports the touchpad on the Acer Aspire One 532h, and hopefully there are other machines using similar devices. * Trackstick sensitivity has been tuned down. I'm not usually a trackstick user, so feedback on the performance is appreciated. * Multitouch support has been temporarily removed.

Re: [Ubuntu-x-swat] [Bug 550625] Re: Alps touchpad is recognized but synaptics clients and scrolling do not work
I've tried it on Dell N5110 with the Alps touchpad and upon running rmmod modprobe Ubuntu froze and I had to reboot. Once it rebooted, there was a cursor, but I couldn't move it. I plugged in a USB mouse and tried to adjust settings under the Pointing/Mouse window, but I couldn't see any entry for the touchpad. I then tried it again, first removing the module with dpkg -r, rebooting and then installing it again - in all further instances the system crashed. I wasn't able to get to dmesg as of each reboot it would not contain any information about 'psmouse' or 'alps'. Happy to run more tests if needed. Thank you for your work. On 1 September 2011 23:30, Seth Forshee seth.fors...@canonical.com wrote: I've been working on changes aimed at providing proper support for these touchpads. I've posted a dkms package with my changes for testing, and I'd appreciate it if you all could test and provide your feedback. The package is available at: http://people.canonical.com/~sforshee/alps-touchpad/psmouse-alps-0.1 /psmouse-alps-dkms_0.1_all.deb After installing, you will need to either reboot or run 'sudo rmmod psmouse; sudo modprobe psmouse' from a terminal to have the changes take effect. If your hardware is supported by the patch, you should see output similar to the following in dmesg. [ 1298.568960] input: DualPoint Stick as /devices/platform/i8042/serio1/input/input18 [ 1298.583662] input: AlpsPS/2 ALPS DualPoint TouchPad as /devices/platform/i8042/serio1/input/input19 After testing, please provide feedback regarding the model of your computer and whether or not the driver worked. If it doesn't work, please include the output of dmesg when using the dkms module. You can uninstall the dkms package by running 'sudo dpkg -r psmouse-alps-dkms' in a terminal. A few notes about the package: 1. The changes include removing the IMPS/2 support from the driver, so if it does not work for your machine your touchpad will revert back to behaving as a plain old PS/2 mouse with the package installed. 2. The driver is known not to support all Alps touchpads. For instance, I have an Acer Aspire One 532h that it doesn't currently support, but I'll be working to add additional support as much as is possible. 3. The driver does support two-finger scrolling, but with the hardware I have at least it doesn't work great. Occasionally the touchpad reports data that looks like a two-finger tap in the middle of a scroll, which generates a right-click behavior. Edge scrolling seems to work better. I'm interested to hear how well two-finger scrolling works on other hardware.

My system locked up when removing psmouse as well.. and apparently corrupted the modules table and (somehow) the nvidia module. I'm assuming that dkms rebuilt the nvidia module along with the psmouse module, and the data hadn't been committed to disk (er, ssd) yet. I ended up having to purge the dkms psmouse package, wipe out the modules, run a 'depmod -a', re-install the package and let it build, and then reboot without trying to remove psmouse.. after that, the new driver worked fine. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu-X, which is subscribed to xserver-xorg-input-synaptics in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/550625 Title: Alps touchpad is recognized but synaptics clients and scrolling do not work To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/linux/+bug/550625/+subscriptions ___ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat Post to : ubuntu-x-swat@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-x-swat More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
